Besides, what better way to start a national holiday than to watch a story about true love prevailing over all odds…
Back in Action with Romeo and Juliet!
After Sunday night’s rainout, the skies are clearing and it looks like it’ll be fine weather tonight for Romeo and Juliet in Barracks Square. The star-crossed lovers have not been so lucky with the weather gods so far, with 3 of our 5 performances having been rained out. There are only 3 remaining–tonight, Tuesday, and Thursday….
“The heavens do low’r upon us for some ill”
Though it’s not currently raining, it does threaten to later. We’re going to cancel tonight’s performance, enjoy your Sunday evening! And don’t worry, Monday night’s forecast looks favourable, so make tomorrow the night to take in this wonderful bit of theatre, in the heart of downtown Fredericton.
